MONTMELO, Spain (AP) --- Lewis Hamilton won his first race since joining
Ferrari two years ago while Formula 1 leader Kimi Antonelli broke down at the
Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix on Sunday.
Hamilton increased his record win haul to 106 career victories with his first
since the Belgian GP in July 2024 while he was still with Mercedes.
The seven-time world champion took advantage of fresher tires and a superior
pitstop strategy by Ferrari to overtake the pole-sitting George Russell, who
finished second.
Antonelli had passed his Mercedes teammate Russell when his car came to a stop
on the track with just four laps to go. He had won five races in a row.
